de rokerj and any of non touristy places

i have a guidebook to europe for backpackers. it says:

"Coffeeshops in city centres - plasticky, neon-lit dives, pumpking out mainstream rock, reggae or techno - are worth avoiding: the dope is limited and low-grade, and quite often the deals are rigged. Less touristy districts house more congenial, high quality outlets. When you walk in, ask to see the menu. This will list all the different hashes and grasses on offer, along with exactly how many grammes you get for your money. Take care with 'spacecakes', mainly because you can never be sure what's in them, and don't ever buy from street dealers."

Basically, catch a ride a little bit outside of town and you'll find a nice place to hang out for the night, with better quality stuff for cheaper.

It says a place called Homegrown Fantasy in Amsterdam is owned by the Dutch Passion seed company, and has the widest range of locally grown herb.

Other good places: De Dampkring, The Bulldog, Global Chillage, Kadinsky (supposedly a great place), and Paradox.


Hope this helps.

The best I've been to was called either just "Blue" or "Blue sth"

They had a kick ass couch on the 1st floor which wasn't taken at the time I stepped in so I crashed there all by myself...just lying there smoking that supa doopa NLxWhite Whitow I got there made me feel like I was in my living room...I almost took my shoes off...that's how cozy it felt...

Also the menu had lil plastic bags with samples of what you're getting!!! Very very very helpful...And well they most def had sth worth showing off!

And surprisingly it was very quiet...just me and the staff in there...the staff actually outnumbered me 4 to 1! And they didn't seem to give a flying fuck about me so i was left alone...GREAT...

Homegrown Fantasy also had some good shit but the staff seemed a bit stiff to me...

Gray Area was ok,too...It could rank higher for ya if ur an American though...
